P R EFACE. 


Mount  Pleasant, 

Roxbury,  Mass.,  Oct.  10,  1878. 

Mr.  Holland’s  Medallic  Collection  is  so  well  known  to 
American  numismatists  that  it  hardly  requires  an  intro- 
duction ; hut  1 may  he  excused  for  calling  the  attention 
of  those  who  have  not  seen  it  to  a few  of  its  peculiarities. 

A glance  at  the  catalogue  will  show  its  great  extent, 
comprising  as  it  does  considerably  more  than  two  thou- 
sand specimens ; but  a glance , except  to  the  close  observer, 
might  fail  to  reveal  one  most  important  fact,  namely  that 
there  are  in  the  collection  no  duplicates  in  metals  ; so  that 
each  number  represents  a distinct  pair  of  dies.  Mr. 
Holland’s  preference  seems  to  have  been  for  medals  in 
silver,  of  which  there  is  an  unprecedented  number,  but 
he  never  thought  it  worth  while  to  retain  even  two  medals 
in  different  metals. 

While  silver  predominates  wherever  a choice  of  metals 
was  possible,  gold  is  not  unrepresented,  as  will  be  seen  by 
reference  to  the  tine  examples  catalogued  in  Nos.  4(58, 
461),  1345,  1308,  2937,  and  elsewhere. 

In  a collection  of  this  magnitude  it  is  not  to  he  supposed 
that  everything  is  rare,  or  even  remarkable.  Mr.  Holland, 
with  the  spirit  that  always  animates  the  true  collector, 
sought  to  make  his  collection  complete , not  only  in  rarities, 
hut  also  in  those  things  which  are  common  and  hence 
little  prized.  And  here  may  be  remarked,  what  no  col-

PREFACE. 


lector  of  experience  has  failed  to  observe,  that  many  things 
easily  procured  at  the  time  of  their  issue,  perhaps  but  a 
few  years  ago,  now  rank  not  only  as  rarities  but  as  treasures. 

Notable  among  these  are  the  small  works  of  Wright 
and  Bale,  the  Counterfeit  Half  Cent  of  1796,  and  many 
more  that  will  be  recollected  by  the  skilled  numismatist. 

Where  the  number  is  so  great  it  is  quite  impossible  to 
call  attention  to  all  specimens  remarkable  either  on 
account  of  their  rarity,  or  their  beauty,  but  happily  any 
suggestion  on  these  points  would  be  superfluous  if  ad- 
dressed to  those  for  whom  this  catalogue  is  intended. 

Some  departments  which  in  American  Collections  are 
usually  but  feebly  represented  it  will  be  noticed  are  in 
this,  uncommonly  full.  As  examples  may  be  named  Corps 
Badges,  the  collection  of  which  is  wonderfully  complete; 
Coins  and  Medals  of  the  British  Dominion  in  North  Ame- 
rica also  well  represented  ; and  the  collection  of  Isle 
of  Man  Currency  here  presented,  is  probably  second 
to  but  one  in  existence,  and  it  happens  that  that  one  is  in 
this  country. 

In  every  department  samples  will  be  found  well  worthy 
a place  in  any  cabinet,  and  it  is  believed  that  no  cabinet 
in  the  land  is  so  complete  that  it  cannot  be  improved  by  a 
judicious  selection  from  this. 

While  giving  to  Mr.  Holland  due  credit  for  learning, 
taste  and  liberality,  as  shown  in  the  perfection  of  his 
collection,  we  must  not  neglect  to  accord  to  Mr.  Seth 
H.  Chadbourne  due  praise  for  the  patience  and  skill  shown 
by  him  in  a more  humble  department  of  numismatic 


PREFACE.  5 

science.  To  him  is  due  the  great  extent  and  comparative 
perfection  of  the  collection  of  Store  Cards  here  catalogued. 

In  the  early  series  of  American  Cards,  few  pieces  are 
wanting,  and  some  are  found  here  which  if  not  strictly 
unique,  are  at  least  hard  to  find  elsewhere.  In  the  cur- 
rency of  18(51-68,  a greater  variety  is  offered  than  has  ever 
before  appeared  in  a public  sale.  In  the  minor  depart- 
ment of.  Sutler’s  Checks  it  is  believed  that  this  collection 
surpasses  all  others.  An  examination  of  No.  3217,  an 
accurate  manuscript  and  printed  descriptive  catalogue  of 
Mr.  Chadbourne’s  collection,  prepared  by  him,  will  con- 
vince any  one  that  his  efforts  are  not  over  rated. 

The  comparative  absence  of  the  Regular  Mint  Series 
will  no  doubt  be  regretted  by  collectors,  as  it  is  deplored 
by  the  owner ; but  it  must  be  remembered  that  Mr.  Hol- 
land’s specialty  was  Medals,  to  which  he  consistently 
adhered. 

The  few  pieces  of  the  Regular  Series  found  in  the  cata- 
logue, it  will  be  seen,  are  by  no  means  destitute  of  interest ; 
the  Washington  Pieces  and  the  Early  American  Coins 
are  specially  worthy  of  attention  ; the  former  for  their 
rarity,  fine  condition  and  great  number,  and  the  latter  for 
their  select  character. 

It  is  hoped  that  something  of  interest  maybe  found  for 
every  collector,  in  the  modest  lines  of  Autographs  and 
Numismatic  Literature  here  described. 

When  first  announced  it  was  intended  that  this  sale 
should  include  several  hundred  Washington  Portraits, 
as  well  as  a very  extensive  and  choice  selection  of 


6 


PREFACE. 


Sermons,  Eulogies  and  Orations  pronounced  on  tlie  occa- 
sion of  Washington’s  death,  and  published  in  1800;  also 
a collection  of  Bric-a-Brac. 

As  the  preparation  of  the  catalogue  advanced,  it  was 
found  impracticable  to  include  the  memorials  of  Wash- 
ington, and  bring  the  sale  within  the  compass  of  a week 
as  at  first,  intended  ; so  they  were  reluctantly  dropped, 
but  even  with  that  omission  of  some  five  hundred  num- 
bers, when  the  manuscript  was  finished  it  was  found  to 
comprise  more  than  4500  lots,  thus  compelling  another 
excision  ; and  at  one  clip  the  Bric-a-Brac,  with  all  the 
relics  of  the  Mound  Builders,  the  Implements  of  the  Stone 
Age,  Indian  Dresses,  Idols,  Guns,  Swords  and  Pistols, 
New  England  Relics,  Porcelain  and  Pottery,  fell  in  a heap  ; 
but  they  have  all  been  gathered  up,  a separate  catalogue 
has  been  made,  and  a sale  has  been  arranged  for,  and  will 
be  announced  in  due  time. 

A word  as  to  my  share  in  all  this  matter,  and  I am  done. 
It  is  not  without  great  satisfaction,  and  some  small  degree 
of  pride,  that  I call  to  mind  the  fact  that  my  catalogues  are 
not  wholly  unknown  to  American  collectors;  and  regard- 
ing the  descriptions  of  the  articles  here  offered  for  sale, 
I have  only  to  say  that  as  heretofore,  I have  endeavored 
to  give  as  far  as  possible  of  each  lot.  a fair  account,  no  more, 
no  less.  That  I have  fallen  into  errors  is  quite  probable; 
but  I trust  that  my  experience  in  the  work,  joined  with 
my  good  intentions,  has  kept  me  from  mistakes  that  could 
possibly  mislead  or  injure  any  buyer. 

W.  Elliot  Woodward.

The  following  half  dollars  of  dates  prior  to  1855,  with  the  exception  of

they  had  lain  undisturbed  for  upwards  of  40  years.  There  were  700  in  the 
package,  a large  portion  of  them  were  uncirculated,  and  these  are  the  very 
finest  specimens,  selected  from  the  entire  lot.  As  far  as  it  extends,  I have

SUTLERS’  CHECKS. 

These  checks  have  of  late  received  great  attention  ; the  following  collec- 
tion is  not  only  the  largest  that  has  ever  been  offered  for  sale,  but,  so  far  as 
the  owner  knows,  is  the  largest  existing,  and  in  quality  is  certainly  sur- 
passed by  none.  They  are  almost  without  exception  scarce,  and  many  are 
very  rare,  for  this  reason  no  attempt  is  made  to  designate  the  rarity  of 
particular  specimens.

Shield  of  France,  “ Gloriam  Regni,  A.  Tvi  Decent, 
1670.” 

For  a very  full  and  interesting  account  of  this  coin  see  an  article  by 
Prof.  Anthon  in  Am.  Jour,  of  Num.,  vol.  xi,  p.  49. 

The  above  described  piece  is  in  almost  the  finest  possible  condition,  and 
that  it  has  appeared  in  but  one  American  sale  indicates  its  extreme 

Lord  Baltimore  or  Maryland  Shilling,  in  fine  condition,

blown  rose,  with  leaf  and  bud  on  a stem,  “Jvan  Este- 
van  de  pena  Florida,  1760.” 

The  duplicate  of  this  piece,  which  is  of  half  dollar  size,  has  long  been 
known  to  American  collectors ; it  was  till  recently  believed  to  be  unique. 
Mr.  Mickley’s  specimen,  which  was  pierced,  sold  for  $52.60.  This,  which  is 
much  finer,  indeed  in  perfect  condition, cost  the  owner  a larger  price.  But 
two  or  three  specimens  are  known.

inscribed  “ United  States  of  America.”  This  cent , 
one  of  the  seven  of  this  variety  known,  was  taken  from

still  in  uncommonly  good  condition.  All  of  the  Wash-

markable piece  is  from  the  Mickley  collection,  and  was 
sold  Oct.  31,  1807,  for  8105.  It  is  the  rarest  variety  of 
all  the  Washington  cents.  No  other  having  appeared 
since  this  was  first  sold,  it  is,  with  scarcely  a doubt, 
■unique,  and  I regard  it  as  not  only  the  rarest,  but  the 
most  valuable  of  all  known  Washington  Pieces,  except-  * 
ing  alone  the  Washington  Half  Dollar  from  the 
Finotti  collection.  It  is  certainly  seven  times  as  rare

date  under  the  ship,  is  rarer  than  the  naked  bust  cent, 
or  the  1804  dollar.  The  edge  of  this  is  differently

Priced,  and  priced  and  named  Catalogues,  furnished  to  order,  of  all  the 
principal  coin  sales  ever  held  in  the  country. 

Early-printed,  rare,  and  curious  American  Books  wanted  ; also,  Local 
Histories,  and  books  relating  to  WASHINGTON. 

For  any  of  which  a reasonable  price  will  be  paid,  or  a liberal  exchange 
given  in  books  or  coins.  For  the  purpose  of  exchanging,  I have  purchased 
the  balance  of  the  editions  of  several  scarce  books,  and  have  besides  had 
printed,  at  the  Riverside,  Munsell,  Brad  street  and  Wilson  presses,  limited 
editions  of  several  valuable  works. 

A few  copies  of  this  catalogue  have  been  printed  on  extra  thick,  heavy 
laid  paper.  They  will  be  priced  as  soon  after  the  sale  as  possible,  and 
furnished  to  those  who  may  order  them  at  $0.00  each.  With  names  ; 
added,  the  price  will  be  if 5. 00.  Persons  desiring  copies  must  make  early 
application  as  above,  as  the  number  reserved  is  very  small.
